Bryan Chu Title: Low Rank Randomized Standard Value Decomposition Abstract: The low rank randomized standard value decomposition is a fast, stable method of computing the dominant singular values of a real, large matrix A. For a large scale system we use a randomized matrix method, a so called, randomized SVD (rSVD). We improve the existing rSVD…

Humans play games. Sometimes we roll the dice, or buy lottery tickets - sometimes we play chess, or mind games of manipulation. History gives us two examples of the development of new mathematical ideas and directions from our playful habits: games of chance, which led to the formulation of Probability Theory, and games of strategy,…
The goal of this conference is to bring young mathematicians together, both as speakers and as participants. The talks will cover an array of subject areas that are well represented in the Duke Journal. There will be nine talks by young mathematicians. More information can be found at: https://sites.duke.edu/dmj2018/
There are many reasons, moral and practical, why we need to diversify our mathematics departments — and more generally STEM departments and the workforce. But how do we go about it? A good starting point is to realize the various barriers to an inclusive environment. In this talk, a case study will be used to…
